Patent Images
1. A communication method of a macro base station, the communication method comprising:
- collecting position information about a micro base station that is mobile and that is served by the macro base station;
predicting a channel between the macro base station and the micro base station using information stored in a channel prediction database that stores information about channels between the macro base station and the micro base station and the position information about the micro base station based on possible positions of the micro base station; and
transmitting and receiving data between the macro base station and the micro base station based on a state of the predicted channel.
